quote:Russian River produces 14,000 bbl a year Source and Three Floyds is 20,000 bbl a year Source. I don't think that makes them unrealistic, especially considering the trend of West Coast brewers opening eastern facilities.

FFF distributes to 4 states right now and closet RR gets is Denver (which is still sparce). Also, considering the RR pulled out of Washington, I just don't see any expansion soon.

quote:To squelch any other rumors: we have NO plans for expansion at this time. Those conversations are still at the "Vinnie and I chatting on the couch in the evening over a couple glasses of wine"

So RR is discussing expansion. I heard from a friend in Marin County that knows the bartender at the RR tasting room that he saw plans on Vinnie's desk that showed a 100000 barrel expansion facility.....just sayin.
